My favorite event of the summer is the Royal Academy of Arts Summer Exhibition.
-
And I go with my dad on what it is is an exhibition from people that submit to the gallery on Hope that there will be chosen.
-
So basically, it's the most Democratic art exhibition, I think in the world.
-
So in the past, I've actually bought a print of people on the train.
-
I got another one called Hanging at the gallery.
-
So we're on our way to the Royal Academy to take a look at the preview of the review.
-
And I'm gonna meet a woman.
-
Edith, He's the curator.
-
And I might even try and sneak away or not working.
-
Got a fantastic picture of some carrots, Guidry yesterday, which I think is very interested in.
-
They have faces.

Can you explain how this came to be like when was the first time this exhibition took place?
-
So the summer exhibition is 251 years old.
-
Is old.
-
Is the academy like how many people submit work So this year it was 16,000 on the theme this year is art that describes our world today.

So first room, one of the things that jock wanted to do, which I think is a lot of fun, is do a menagerie.
-
You got these weird kind of hybrid dogs here who did that?

It's like that Caterpillar movie or whatever it's called human sin to be.

I was very, very weird.
-
And then you get kind of Maur kind of recognizable forms here in this crazy tiger eyes made up of those little tea talk things T k covers, you know, the little wrappers.
-
What's going on in here?
-
So this is the biggest room on Jock McFadyen hung this room and he was very interested in looking at photography and painting together.
-
So normally we would separate out photography and painting.
-
So it's it's a painting.
-
Looks like a photo.
-
Yeah, on one of the great pieces in here, I think, Is this work by the vendors?
-
Oh, yeah, People know him is a filmmaker, but he's being a photographer since 19 sixties.
-
You got Vince Enders photograph you but Anselm Kiefer who has got to be one of the most famous artists in the world.
-
But then in amongst that within the exhibition, you've got work by artist that none of us have heard on their emerging on.
-
It's such an exciting opportunity to find those artists on maybe at the start of their career, start your collection.
-
Each galleries got a very different personality because different present hung it.
-
This room has been put together by Richard Wilson and Richard Wilson.
